Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s

Chapter 195: Chapter 195: Having Someone in the Court Makes Things Easy Chapter 195: Chapter 195: Having Someone in the Court Makes Things Easy Having finished speaking, she took out a blueprint she had drawn in advance from her bag and handed it to Lu Yichen.

Lu Yichen took it and looked it over carefully. He said, “Okay, leave this to me. I will make sure it gets done right.”

Luo Qiao took out five Big Unity bills from her bag and handed them over: “Brother Lu, take this money for now. We can settle any differences later.”

Lu Yichen hesitated slightly before accepting it.

The two of them chose a spot in the backyard. After that, Lu Yichen left to buy materials while Luo Qiao stayed and cleared the area to facilitate construction once the materials arrived.

In that corner over there, she planned to grow some celery and spinach, first using her Special Ability to make them grow quickly, then harvesting them all into her Spatial Warehouse, and placing some in the kitchen at the front yard.

She saved the celery roots in her Spatial Warehouse, planting them along the bank of the stream. Her Special Ability couldn’t be used inside the space, so none of these things could go to waste.

She intended to collect and store these vegetables to sell them for a good price come winter.

Lu Yichen returned quite quickly. Not only had he brought back the materials, but he also brought two workers. According to Lu Yichen, each worker would be paid one block of wages, and they would definitely finish the job today.

The materials were procured with the help of a comrade-in-arms, though they weren’t given for free. He had pulled them straight from their San Jian’s main warehouse in a one-stop shop, and the workers were also recommended by his comrade.

Both workers were off today and happened to earn extra money, but it wasn’t something that could be mentioned outright.

As workers for San Jian, they started construction after reviewing the blueprints. This task was too simple for them.

Luo Qiao thought about providing lunch so that the workers could have a break after eating, which should allow them to resume work and ideally finish early enough to catch the afternoon bus back.

She went to the backyard to make arrangements with the workers before heading out. When she returned, she brought back rice, flour, oil, and a chicken chopped into pieces.

She had left behind the non-transportable contents of the kitchen, which were still enough to make a meal. After cleaning the utensils, she cooked a large pot of chicken with green beans, celery, and tomatoes, accompanied by two mixed flour pancakes.

She also boiled an egg and spinach soup, which was done just as the workers finished their shift in the backyard. Luo Qiao’s meal was ready as well.

The workers in the backyard had already smelled the aroma and were eagerly anticipating the meal. Due to the lack of kitchen supplies, the workers were served using pottery bowls, but regardless of the serving ware, the meal was highly praised by the workers.

After eating and resting for a bit, the workers resumed their work. If it weren’t for the wall blocking some of the sun, it would have been unbearable in the hot weather.

Luo Qiao boiled a pot of water with sugar added, which she served in pottery bowls and took to the backyard.

She picked some cucumbers and tomatoes, washed them for the workers to eat when they were thirsty, and then returned to the front yard to make a trip to the recycling station, hoping to find something useful.

After saying goodbye to Lu Yichen, Luo Qiao left the courtyard. On her way past the post office, she thought it would be good to inform Grandpa Yuan and Grandpa Yang about her going to study at City First Middle School since they must be worried about it.

After mailing the letter and quickly heading to the recycling station, she was unfortunately unable to find anything of use this time.

Thinking of the missing items in the house, she went to the Black Market. By the time she returned, she had acquired most of the missing kitchen items.

After putting the items down and still having some time left, she washed her hands and went out to the supply and marketing cooperative across the street to buy a measuring tape, planning to measure the bed’s dimensions. She aimed to make the mattress and quilt in the next few days.
